the more i hang out with ethan the more i love him. he's so sweet. he's comfortable with himself. we are both knock-kneed. i love his hair. it is like gold. i love his jokes. he laughs at mine. i wish i was as athletic and adventurous as him. i love his elf ears and his cute smile. just LOVE ethan so much. happy birthday.

Like Robyn W. used to say--we got our money's worth on this one! Ethan is the sweetest guy. I know we always say that about Austin, but its every bit as true for E as well. He's got Austin's sweet disposition, Paul's looks and charm, my artistic ability (okay, he's much better than me), and he takes good care of Isaiah and Truman. We love you. Mom

oh EY-TAN! E is one of the coolest guysever! I am so glad we got to spend time with you this summer. I will say what you want me to say, but this one time only: HOOOOORAH! Happy belated birthday, cuz. love you!

I don't think Pam teaches 10th grade, but maybe she means the actual year next year, and not school year. In which case, I hate it when people refer to things in actual years instead of school years.

Anyway. I think I met Ethan when he was as old as in that last picture of you and Kaity. Wow. I'm not sure you should be getting this old this fast. Not ok, buddy. As long as you keep acting 5 that's alright.
